We need your help now more than ever.

There are a number of ways to help the Aurora Food Pantry.

﻿Food Drives﻿We welcome food donations from any interested groups who would like to hold a food drive. Please contact us to find out what our specific needs are, as they vary from time to time. While food drives are popular during the holiday season, food is needed throughout the year; therefore, we always encourage you to choose a month that is not during peak season to hold a food drive.

For more information on holding a food drive and to receive of list of suggested items, please call us at 905-841-1577.

DonationsThe Aurora Food Pantry welcomes both monetary and non-perishable food donations. Donated food should be non-perishable food and can be dropped off at the Pantry, local fire stations, and many local grocery stores.

Financial donations are always appreciated. The funds are used to cover the cost of operating the Pantry and to purchase food that is in short supply. A monetary donation can be dropped off at the Pantry or through the Canada Helps website, www.canadahelps.org.

Consider making a giving page on www.canadahelps.org in support of the Aurora Food Panty and encourage your friends and family to contribute to your cause of feeding the hungry in Aurora. For additional information regarding donations, please click here.

All volunteers must be scheduled in advance. Unfortunately, we cannot accept volunteers who drop-in without a previous arrangement.

There are three different shifts available:Saturdays from 9:00 to 12:00; first and third Tuesday mornings 9:00 to 12:00; second, third and fourth Thursday evenings from 5:30 until 8:00.
